Question
Define ionisation energy. How would the ionsation energy change when electron in hydrogen atom is replaced by a particle of mass 200 times that of the electron but having the same charge?

Answer

The minimum energy, required to free the electron from the ground state of the hydrogen atom, is known as Ionization Energy.
$\text{E}_{k} = \frac{\text{me}^{4}}{8\in_{o}^{2}\text{h}^{2}}\text{i.e,.}\text{E}_{o}\propto\text{m}$
Therefore, Ionization Energy will become 200 times.
